So I was reading in the MMWR that all of the measles cases in the current outbreak were imported. I understand that different regions have their own measles virus genotypes, and their measles vax correspond with their genotype. So here's my question: does being vaxed for one measles genotype create "immunity" to other genotypes? I ask this because it would be funny how such a big deal is being made about non-vaxers in the US being responsible for spreading measles... only for it to turn out that the US measles vax wouldn't prevent infection from an European genotype.
